Race Judicata offers the New Orleans professional community a unique opportunity to effect lasting, positive change through Boys Hope Girls Hope. Founded by Rev. Harry Tompson and Loyola Law School Alum Hon. Adrian Duplantier in 1980, Boys Hope Girls Hope of Greater New Orleans is a nonprofit organization that makes a long-term commitment to children in need by providing them with residential care and quality education through high school and continued emotional and financial support through college.

In a time when New Orleans is riddled with crime and a grave concern for our city's youth, Boys Hope Girls Hope provides an opportunity for young, academically talented students living in challenging home situations to break the cycle of poverty that exists in so many inner-city families due to a lack of quality education. Unlike short-term interventions, Boys Hope Girls Hope makes a long-term commitment to fundamentally changing a child's environment from one that is destructive to one that is positive, supportive, and HOPEFUL.

For 30 years, Boys Hope Girls Hope has been a beacon of HOPE in the New Orleans community. Since the program began, 100% of scholars completing the program have graduated from high school and attended college. Boys Hope Girls Hope is fully funded by private donations, depending solely upon the generosity of community members to empower children in its care to reach their full potential in life.
